Let the kids have some fun and learn skills along the way. The Duluth Public Library will host a metal tooling workshop for kids - a unique and fun experience for ages 7 to 12. The first session will happen Thursday, November 7 at 6PM at the West Duluth Branch, 5830 Grand Avenue.

Kids will learn how to create a picture frame using rolls of soft aluminum with chopsticks as a drawing tool. Duluth Art Institute staff will teach how to create texture in the metal with the chopsticks and how to add color to the frame. Kids can bring a special photo with them from home and then create a frame around it.

The workshops are free, but space is limited and registration is required. Call the West Duluth Branch Library at 730-4280. Kids should be accompanied by an adult.
